Love this one even more than Sea's Keep.

Three lines jump out on the favorites parade:

>“Now, William,” he chided, never stopping. “Henny was special.”<

>“You cheated!” slipped out before he could check himself.

Will lifted one eyebrow, obviously amused. “Demigod.”<

>“The ‘Immoral Captain Jack Sparrow’ has a nice ring.”<

I like you carrying on with your premise that Will ditches the organ he can't play and makes a forge to craft his exquisite swords. He may be the Ferryman now, but you don't ever permanently stymie an artist.

I like the way Jack uses the swordplay to unmask Will's concern for his mortality. Also the consideration that Jack can't get any friends to join him in "forever", implication that Jack's not such a loner after all.

Also like the implication that he gave Elizabeth or the child his Fountain of Youth water.

And of course I like that Will just happens to have some more for Jack to quaff after all.

Mmmmmm!
